| Abstract | ||
| The present paper is concerned with suggesting a model for assessing the translation of legal texts. To achieve this aim, a theoretical survey of the various positions held on the concept of register has been made to find out which position is better to adopt. Then, the distinctive features of the English legal register have been outlined. These features have formed the bases on which the model under consideration has been constructed. The features can be grouped into three main classes: the layout, the syntactic and the semantic features. To find out whether or not the translator of legal texts succeeded in choosing the suitable translation method, a brief review of the classification of legal texts (as categorized by translation theory specialists) has been done. Moreover, two untranslated Arabic texts have been considered to uncover the influence, if any, of the target language (TL) legal texts on the translation of the source language (SL) texts . | ||
